Tribute to Nice Girls
This is in response to an article I found published by the University of Pennsylvania Newspaper. It was about a tribute to nice guys. But who says that only guys are nice? What about women? For years women have put up with so much crap. Only in the last century have women encompassed the same rights as men. Aren’t women as equally tolerant of annoying men? I’m a guy, and I have a hard time putting up with myself, and I can not begin to believe how someone else is supposed to be able to. So here it goes, a tribute to nice girls.
Ladies, this is to you. This is for all the times he went out with his buddies and wouldn’t even answer his cell phone when you tired to call him. This is for the time when you wanted to go shopping, but his love for the Michigan rivalry against Ohio State beat out his love for you. Or the time when had it not been for some strategic hinting, he wouldn’t have remembered this weekend was your anniversary. This is for the time you finally thought he would take you to a nice movie, when in fact it was an action movie with Bruce Willis and multiple explosions.
This is for all the girls who still stay with there guy despite his inability to sense emotion, of have a feeling, other than when watching “Field of Dreams.” For all the women who are constantly berated by guys to go on a date, yet won’t say yes, knowing full well that a failed date would mean no more friendship. Thanks for knowing we can’t handle failure. Thanks for watching out for a guy’s best interest. Thanks for making sure we don’t do anything stupid.
Thanks for keeping the world equal. This goes out to all the women who don’t care about eating pizza or fast food. For those who think anorexic women should die installing false hopes in their man that all women can achieve a size -2. This for the women who still dress normal. You know, normal, as in not looking skanky. Thanks for making the world great. Thanks for openly telling other people your mind. We already can tell when you’re pissed off, but your confidence in telling people that unless they shut up, you’ll be shuffling some mortal coils, makes guys like me, feel that the world is in working order. For all the women out their, who still smile when meeting their best guy friend’s new girlfriend, despite the fact she thinks she’s a complete bitch, this is for you.
Or for all those countless rebound dates with your best guy friend after his girlfriend dumped him, which you saw coming a mile away, despite the fact that they weren’t “dates.” You padded his ego, making him think he had charm and he was smooth, not only because he needed it. But because, you’re nice like that.
I’d like to say nice women are simply that. Nice. But they aren’t. They’re cool too. Unfortunately, they don’t get credit often, or ever for that matter. I’d like to say I can explain this, but I can’t. From what I’ve seen, women who are nice or cool, or honest, well, they just wind up at the end of the pack. But until you find a nice guy, the best I can say is this. Here’s a toast. To all those who know that what some people might call submissive, or boring, you’re actually a nice person deep down. It just so happens, since you’re a woman, you have a little bitch in you too, and you should take pride in it. So until you find Mr. Right, here’s to you having strength to smile through all the meetings of shallow skanky girls who happen to get to date the guy you like. Here’s to you answering the phone when you really could care less about other people’s relationship woes. This is for those who lead by example and think before they speak, knowing full well what the truth is, and that it hurts. You do it because you’re nice. And the world needs people like you.
